Electrostatic molecular effect of differently charged surfactants on the solubilization capacity and physicochemical properties of salt-caged nanosuspensions containing pH-dependent and poorly water-soluble rebamipide. Int J Pharm 2022; 619:121686.

Abstract
In this study, the electrostatic molecular effect of differently charged surfactants on the solubilization capacity and physicochemical properties of salt-caged nanosuspensions (NSPs) containing poorly water-soluble drug was investigated. Anionic rebamipide (RBM) was chosen as a model drug because of its poor water solubility in low pH condition and ionizable acidic forms. Negatively charged sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) and positively charged cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) were selected as surfactants for the preparation of NSPs or in the dissolution medium. Salt-caged NSPs surrounded by NaCl were prepared by the HCl-NaOH neutralization method in the presence of poloxamer 407. Interestingly, the addition of positively charged CTAB in the preparation process or the dissolution media could interfere with the solubilization capacity of salt-caged NSPs containing a negatively charged drug via intermolecular electrostatic attraction. In the presence of positively charged CTAB, the salt-caged NSP was disordered in structure via electrostatic attractive interaction with partially ionizable anionic RBM resulting in changes in the physicochemical properties of the salt-caged NSP such as low drug content, increased particle size, decreased dissolution rate, and the formation of water-insoluble precipitates with rough and irregular crystals. This inhibitory effect of CTAB on the dissolution rate of pure RBM and the salt-caged NSP in pH 6.8 intestinal fluid was pronounced in a concentration-dependent manner mainly owing to the formation of precipitates, so-called poorly soluble complexes. When the salt-caged NSP (F1) was dissolved in DW containing CTAB, the dissolution rate decreased more significantly, dissolving less than 20% within 2 h. Depending on the surfactant charges, the charge density and the initial potential were varied during the dissolution of NSPs in deionized water (DW). In contrast, the negatively charged SLS did not significantly change the physicochemical properties of the salt-caged NSP. For example, the dissolution rate of the salt-caged NSP containing SLS in DW or pH 1.2 gastric fluid remained over 90% for 2 h. Surfactants for the formulation or dissolution media should be chosen carefully because of their effect on the physicochemical properties and solubilization capacity of salt-caged NSPs containing poorly water-soluble and ionizable drugs via electrostatic molecular interactions.

Advances of supramolecular interaction systems for improved oil recovery (IOR). Adv Colloid Interface Sci 2022; 301:102617. [PMID: 35217257 DOI: 10.1016/j.cis.2022.102617] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/22/2021] [Revised: 02/17/2022] [Accepted: 02/17/2022] [Indexed: 01/07/2023]
Abstract
Improved oil recovery (IOR) includes enhanced oil recovery (EOR) and other technologies (i.e. fracturing, water injection optimization, etc.), have become important methods to increase the oil/gas production in petroleum industry. However, conventional flooding systems always encounter the problems of low efficiency, high cost and complicated synthetic procedures for harsh reservoirs conditions. In recent decades, the supramolecular interactions are introduced into IOR processes to simplify the synthetic procedures, alter their structures and properties with bespoke functionalities and responsiveness suitable for different conditions. Herein, we primarily review the fundamentals of several supramolecular interactions, including hydrophobic association, hydrogen bond, electrostatic interaction, host-guest recognition, metal-ligand coordination and dynamic covalent bond from intrinsic principles and extrinsic functions. Then, the descriptions of supramolecular interactions in IOR processes from categories and advances are focused on the following variables: polymer, surfactant, surfactant/polymer (SP) complex for EOR and viscoelasticity surfactant (VES) for clean hydraulic fracturing aspects. Finally, the field applications, challenges and prospects for supramolecular interactions in IOR processes are involved and systematically addressed. The development of supramolecular interactions can open the way toward adaptive and evolutive IOR technology, a further step towards the cost-effective production of petroleum industry.

On the effects of organic-acids isomers on temperature-responsiveness in wormlike micelles (WLMs) systems. J Colloid Interface Sci 2022; 608:893-902.

Abstract
Responsive wormlike micelles (WLMs) consisted of cationic surfactants and organic-acids are fascinating due to their reversible molecular recognition properties. However, it is unknown how the structure of organic-acids alters the stimuli-responsiveness of WLMs systems. Herein, the peculiar nature of temperature-responsive behaviors in three WLMs systems were systematically investigated. These were manufactured by combining N-erucamidopropyl-N,N-dimethylamine (UC22AMPM) with isomers of organic-acids: o-phthalic acid (o-PA), m-phthalic acid (m-PA) and p-phthalic acid (p-PA) at molar ratio of 2:1 (named as o-EAPA, m-EAPA and p-EAPA respectively). The phase behaviors, macro- and micro-rheology, as well as the mechanism of temperature-responsiveness were explored by visual inspection, rheological and optical methods. The results showed that the three systems exhibited different responsiveness with increase of temperature. Among them, the viscosity and viscoelasticity of o-EAPA were gradually decreased with temperature increase from 30 °C to 90 °C. On the other hand, those of p-EAPA were firstly increased and subsequently decreased, exhibiting the highest viscosity during the heating process. This peculiar phenomenon was attributed to the hydrophilic difference of organic-acids isomers, leading to variations of micelle transitions upon temperature increase. This study is the first report of aromatic-acids isomers inducing different on temperature-responsiveness, and finding beneficial for the development of responsive WLMs for different applications.

Abstract
Responsive wormlike micelles are very useful in a number of applications, whereas it is still challenging to create dramatic viscosity changes in anionic surfactant systems. Here a differential pH-responsive wormlike micelle based on sulfonic surfactants was developed, which is formed by mixing sodium dodecyl trioxyethylene sulphate (SDES) and ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid tetrasodium (EDTA4-·4Na+) at the molar ratio of 1 : 1. The phase behavior, aggregate microstructure and viscoelasticity of the SDES/EDTA4-·4Na+ solution were investigated via macroscopic observation, cryo-TEM and rheological measurements. It was found that the phase behavior of the SDES/EDTA4-·4Na+ solution undergoes transitions from a water-like fluid to viscoelastic upon decreasing the pH. On decreasing the pH from 12.01 to 3.27 by adding HCl, the viscosity of the transparent solutions with wormlike micelles was increased rapidly and reached ∼3100 mPa s. Furthermore, on increasing the pH by adding NaOH, the viscosity was slightly increased due to the addition of Na+. However, the increase in the concentration of Na+ is much smaller than the theoretical addition. The same phenomenon was noted in the sodium citrate solution, but does not exist in the sodium formate system. The viscosity of the micellar solution has a sensitive response to inorganic acids and tolerance to inorganic bases due to the characteristics of polybasic acids.

Abstract
Wormlike micelles (WLMs) have been observed in a wide variety of cationic surfactants. Here we developed WLMs based on an N-allyl substituted cationic surfactant with an unsaturated C22-tail, N-erucamidopropyl-N,N-dimethyl-N-allyl-ammonium bromide (EDAA), and compared them with UC22AMPM at the same concentration. The viscoelasticity, aggregate microstructure and salt tolerance of EDAA solutions were investigated by rheology, surface tension and Cryo-TEM measurements. It was found that EDAA exhibited a higher viscosity and a high salt tolerance. Upon increasing the concentration of NaCl, the viscosity of wormlike micelles in the solutions continuously increased and reached ∼1.10 × 106 mP s at 200 mM. On further increasing the NaCl concentration to 2000 mM, the viscosity remained at ∼106 mP s without any reduction. But the viscosity of UC22AMPM solutions showed a drastic change with the increase of NaCl concentration. This drastic variation in rheological behavior is attributed to the presence of the N-allyl substituent. Besides, the EDAA also shows some advantages such as low overlapping concentration(∼2.2 mM) and stable viscosity over the whole pH range.
